Which of the following is the independent variable in the equation below?

A(f) = 92 + 2f

The length of the chair could be appropriately measured in centimeters. Kilometers are used to measure long distances while micrometers could be used to measure the length of small microorganism in microbiology lab. However, milligrams are used to measure the masses of small quantities.

We are asked to determine Japheth’s uncle’s age relating to Japheth’s age.

First, express Japheth’s uncle’s age in terms of Japheth’s age as follows

Japheth’s age=k

Japheth’s uncle’s age, u = 3k-10.

Thus, the relationship between Japheth’s uncle’s age to that of Japheth is u=3k-10.

Let the unknown length of the x. The resulting triangle is shown below.

We use the Pythagoras theorem as follows to find the unknown value of x as:

Thus, the value of unknown side of the triangle is 21.8 feet.

Here, we are required to find the unit of measuring mass. The SI unit of mass is kilogram but other derived units are grams, milligrams, microgram and more.

A kilogram is a large quantity for measuring heavier objects but grams can used to measure small and light objects such as the mass of the mobile phone. Therefore, gram is the appropriate unit for measuring weight of a mobile phone.

A dependent variable is one that depends on the independent variable. An independent variable is one that when changed result in a change of another variable.

In this problem, if we change the brand of laptop, tax rate, and memory size, the price of the laptop changes. Thus, the cost of the laptop is the dependent variable.

P-At=-kr

Subtract P on both sides

P-P-At=-kr-P

-At=-kr-P

Divide both sides by -t

-At/-t=(-kr-P)/-t

A=(kr+P)/t

we find the value of x by applying the absolute conditions to the given equation.

First, add 2 to both sides of equation

The absolute conditions are:

If   , a>0, then u=a or u=-a

In this case a=10, which is greater 0.

The first condition becomes

Add 2 to both sides of the equation

Divide both sides by 4

The second condition becomes

Add 2 to both sides of the equation

Divide both sides by 4

Then, the value of x is 3 or -2.

we are asked to find the number of gallons a full tank can hold. A full tank is equivalent to 1.

Convert the mixed fraction into proper fraction as follows

(2frac{2}{5}=frac{left(2ast5 ight)+2}{5}=frac{10+2}{5}=frac{12}{5})

If we let x be the number of gallons in full tank, and setting up the proportion equation with the number of gallons on the numerator and fraction of tank on denominator as follows.

(frac{x gallons}{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})

Cross-multiply to find the value of x.

(frac{x }{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})

(x astfrac{4}{7}full tank=frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank)

(x =frac{frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank}{frac{4}{7}full tank}=frac{12}{5}divfrac{4}{7} gallons=frac{12}{5}astfrac{7}{4}gallons=frac{21}{5}gallons)

Converting 21/5 to a mixed fraction is 4 1/5. Thus, when the tank is full, it holds 4 1/5 gallons of water.

We use the given slope to find the minimum length of the ramp. In this case, slope is the ratio of height to length of the lamp. Thus,

If we let x be the minimum length of the ramp. Then,

Substituting the value of slope into the above equation results in,

Solve for value of x by cross-products

X = 18 Feet

Thus, the minimum length of the ramp needed to provide access to a door that is 1.5 high is 18 feet.

The number of cups of milk to make a bigger batch, we proceed as follows:

First convert the mixed number 1 2/5 as

Then, we let the unknown number of cups of milk to be x and we set a proportion equation with number cups of floor as numerator and cups of milk as denominator

Find the value of x by cross-products

2 as a fraction is 2/1 which is then used to find the product of the numerator as follows.

Per means division. The above equation becomes

When dividing fractions, we multiply the first fraction with the reciprocal of the second. The reciprocal of 2/9 is 9/2. Thus

The numbers of cups of milk required is 63/5, which when converted to mixed fraction becomes 12 3/5.
